Named after the Yorkshire valley of Swaledale in England, the Swaledale Sheep loves spending time in the mountainous areas of Great Britain. A great project for those who love to challenge themselves with techniques like complex colour changing, our crochet version is a wonderful addition to any crochet sheep herd.
